Lowe's Motor Speedway Notes...

Despite running out of gas two weeks ago in New Hampshire with 10
laps to go and leading the race, the Buckshot Racing team has high hopes for
the Carquest 300. Jones has led at least one lap in three of the last four
Busch races dating back to Talladega (4/15/00).

Buckshot Jones has recorded three top-10 finishes at Lowe's Motor
Speedway in the Busch Series and finished 29th in last year's Coca-Cola 600,
Winston Cup event.

The Buckshot Racing team experienced their best starting position of
the 2000 season two weeks ago at New Hampshire International Speedway by
qualifying 2nd. The second-place starting position is Buckshot's best
qualifying effort since July 31, 1998 at Indianapolis Raceway Park where he
sat on the pole.

The team is bringing a brand new Chevrolet Monte Carlo to race with
at Lowe's Motor Speedway. The car was purchased from a Hooter's ProCup team
before having new front and rear clips installed on the car.

Buckshot Jones Said...

"We're real happy about the results of our testing at Charlotte a
couple of weeks ago. The two-day session gave us a lot of time to work with
the Monte Carlo and we found out the setup for Charlotte in a Monte Carlo is
totally different from the Pontiac. I think we have a good handle on things
going into the 300."

"It's a first class facility and a great place to race. For me it
ranks right behind Daytona as one of the races to win each year on the
schedule. The track itself is tricky to get a hold of because it changes
quite a bit. You need to be prepared to make adjustments from the time the
race starts until it ends."
